ment of the public debt will come up
in the Senate to-day. The Senate Fl
nance Committee, on motion of Gene
raj Wickham, has proposed an amend

be whether it will be adopted or re-

opposed to the amendment.
There is talk-it may amount to no.
thing more-of the General Assembly
(after it appoints the commissioners
taking a recess for say four weeks. The
idea is that il will take the commission
ers two weeks to reach Richmond and
that it will take two weeks for them to
investigate the States financial affairs.
While it is apparent that there are some
advantages in this scheme, it is almost
certain that it will meet with violentop-
position, for the calendar Of each house
is crowded with local and private busi-
ness, and not one days consideration
has yet been given the Code. -------
DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
This body will meet tomorrow night
to nominate Railroad Commissioner
and some three or four county judges.
Among those mentioned in connec-
ton with the cOmmissionership are II.
G.. Mofett, Esq, the present incum
bent General James c. Hill, of Albe-
marie, Sergeant-at-Arms Of the House
of Delegates; w. T. Atkins, Esq, of

TEE.
The Senate committee appointed to
investigate the charge made that "A
number of lobbyists have been at work
here in the interest of the Charleston,
Cincinnati, and Chicago Railroad Com
pany's bill met Saturday, and will meet
again to-day.
What is called sn "important wit

but it is said that he really knows
nothing more than that he was en-
ployed to see that the company's print

The investigation is likely to drag on
at great length.

In the city of Cork, Ireland, Monday
night, few buildings and grounds were dec
Grated and illuminated in honor of tho jubi-
lee, and many others who would have made
similar other displays we're deferred through
fear OF an attack. Their fears were well
founded, for an immense crowd marched to
the illuminated houses and proceeded to
smash the windows, meanwhile cheering for
Parnell, and crying: "To with the
Queen!" The police charged upon the mob,
but were met by volleys of stones. and with
great difficulty cleared the streets.

His Friends Making IA Still Hunt To Secure

Phil.
A WASHINGTON special to the Chicago Daily
Meas (mugwump) says: There is said to be
an organized movement among a number of
Republican politicians having for its object
the nomination of Gen. Sheridan for Presi-
dent Those engaged in the movement believe
that an irrepressible conflict will develop in
the Republican National Convention between
the adherents of Blaine and sherman which
will prevent the nomination OF either of those
leaders, ana that Sheridan can command q
sufficient number of delegates to secure the
nomination as Hayes did at Cincinnati in 1876,
and as Garfield did at Chicago in 1882 l am
informed that this project TO nominate
Sheridan was started about six months ago by
certain leaders who believe that the Repub-
lican party must look TO the soldier element at

THE INTERSTATE COMMISSION.

GENERAL BUTLER, representing the Burton
Car Company, addressed the Interstate Com
mission on Thursday. He attacked the testi-
mony of General Manager Stone, of the Chi
cago, burlington and Quincy Roal, in certain
particulars, citing The dimensions of the
Burton car to show that it, capac-
ity for carrying railroad ties, for exam
pie was greater than that of ordinary cars,
contrary to the statement of Mr.. Stone. The
testimony showed that the road accepted every
kind of car without discrimination except
what they chose TO call the Palace cattle car.
The Lake Shore Company would not take the
Burton car at all, which was directly in the
face of the law. The aggregate of the extra
charges against the Burton cars amounted to
n discrimination OF - per cent He cited su-
thorities in support of his claim that the roads
had no right TO make determinations, and
declared that the interstate commerce
law had not changed the condition of
the law in this respect Writ Dexter of Chi
cago argued in behalf of the Chicago, Bur-
lington and Quincy that the Burton Car Com
pany was common carrier which was seeking
to intrude its cars upon respondents tracks.
Mr. Stone had testified that the three quarters
of cent mile which the railroads allowed
each other for the use of their cars was too
much. Yet Mr.. Burton had admittel that his
company received G6 per cent. more than that,
and under the guise of philanthrophy the
complaintants come here and ask an order
perpetuating these rates

The Law Against Selling Liquor on sun

A ST. LOUIS dispatch of Monday says: "The
Sunday law was generally observed in this
city yesterday. and it was exceedingly difficult
TO get glass of intoxicating liquor at any
time during the day. Large numbers of peo-
pie wandered from one Sunday haunt into an
other until noon. when they became satisfied
that the law was being enforced, and then
departed for the country, where were numer-
Gus extemporized beer gardens. The grip
railroad alone carried $4,000 people to the
country. Eighteen saloon-keepers were ar
rested for violating the law. The police say
not one escaped. The hotels refused to serve
liquors to the guests from the bar but the
steward received private stock from the
guests rooms before dinner and served it at
their tables. The clubs served liquors az
usual, il having been decided that they are not
amenable. The result was that the Sabbath
was very quiet The streets appeared de-
serted except along street-car lines, where the
people hocked. There was scarcely any
drunkenness and very few arrests for dis
turbances -

from the robbers pistol on the head and the
emphatic request for "Your money, and
that d quickl" brought out all the
money he bad-$40. The robbers then
proceeded to the berth just across the aisle
of the car, in which Mr.. M. Ii. Mees, an
insurance man of Galveston, was Sleep
ing, and demanded his money. He handed
them So, and told the leader that that was
all he had. The robbers insisted that he had
more, and made him take an oath that this
amount was all he had. He at first put up
his left hand to take the oath, but the rob-
bers commanded him to put up his other
hand. X. J.. Armistead, travelling man
from New York, next contributed S15, and
saved $40 by concealing it under his bed.
They then proceeded TO the next berth on
the left side of the car and ordered
Mr.. Newbarger, drummer from New
York, to give up all the money he
had. He was somewhat slow in comply
ing with the order, and the captain of the
robbers hit him several severe blows
over the head, which caused the blood TO
flow freely. From this gentleman the
robbers made a valuable haul. They got
$40 in cash, four diamond scarf-pins, ONO
collar button with a diamond set, one
diamond ring, and one diamond stud; the
estimated value of the whole lot is 81 ZOO.
